Mamdani’s answer: “Absolutely. I called October 7th a war crime. I called it horrific. I’ve condemned time and again the killing of civilians. That is completely unacceptable. And that is something I’ve been consistent with and will continue to do because ultimately, you can’t consider one thing a war crime and not the other. This comes back to a consistent application of that.”
In an April interview with the Forward’s Jacob Kornbluh, Mamdani clarified his view, calling the Oct. 7 attacks “a horrific war crime” and condemning a rally that celebrated the attacks.
Mamdani spoke about many Jews’ fears of violence. Quote: “You know, just a few days after the horrific war crime of October 7, a friend of mine told me about how he went to his synagogue for Shabbat services, and he heard the door open behind him, and a tremor went up his spine as he turned around, not knowing who was there and what they meant for him. I spoke to a Jewish man in Williamsburg just months ago who told me that the door he left unlocked for decades is now one that he locks. And ultimately, this is because we’re seeing a crisis of antisemitism.”
